Selection of reference genes for RT-qPCR analysis of rice with Rhizoctonia solani infection and biocontrol PGPR/KSi application.

Overall, ACT1 was the most stable RG with R. solani infection alone, GAPDH2 with R. solani infection plus KSi, UBC5 with R. solani infection plus P. saponiphilia, and eIF4a with R. solani infection plus P. protegens. Both ACT1 and RPS27 were the most stable with the combination of KSi and P. saponiphilia, while RPS27 was the most stable with the combination of KSi and P. protegens.
